Hello shoe-lovers! We are in Miami at Lincoln Road and Dadeland mall recognizing you!
Since October 2018 Facenote is working with Melissa Shoes USA in Miami on a Facial recognition innovative implementation. Lots of shoe lovers are passing by the storefront and interacting with our technology. Some of them are having a super good time!!! ☺☺.
How does it work? Easy.
When a customer pass by Melissa Store she or he is invited to register to be recognized at the store.
She or he can text (sms) a selfie from their mobile phone, or even share it on Instagram, and, 10 seconds later ….we can greet them by name, and reward them.
By connecting to the existing CRM, the associates can know their previous purchases and provide a better buying experience.
In July 2017, and after a very intensive selection process, XRC Labs NY invited us to be part of their 4th Cohort, during 13 weeks at their offices in NY.

Happy to share Shingy’s craziness!

Last month, we were invited to showcase our technology at the NACDS Total Store Expo, Vision 2028 (http://tse.nacds.org/plan/vision-2028) in San Diego, California.
The claim of the Vision 2028 area of the expo was “Insights into the future of chain and retail pharmacy”, so our idea was to show how facial recognition can be used to improve customer experience inside the stores, as well as explore other ideas for the health industry.
We spent three amazing days discussing with major health industry companies, like Walgreens, CVS as well as hundreds of representatives of pharmacies across US and the world, and showing how technology can be used to provide a new experience in that area.
